Rather than get shipped off to a retirement home, Carl (voiced by Ed Asner) attaches balloons to his house and takes to the skies. He’d promised his late wife that someday he would follow in the footsteps of their favorite explorer, and so winds up in South America - but with a young stowaway aboard. Together the pair encounters a rare bird, a talking dog and the famed explorer - whose ambitions wind up threatening them all. An Oscar winner for Best Animated Feature and Best Original Score, this Pixar hit offers more than enough humor, action and heart to delight audiences young and old.
